GEAR OVERVIEW | LIGHTWEIGHT + PHOTOGRAPHY
The following is a list of current hiking gear.
Much of the geared is aimed towards lightweight or ultralight backpack, for many reasons including comfort...and reducing weight so that I can carry my DSLR without having a absurd base weight. You read that correctly. I always take my 1.5-2 pound [body only] DSLR hiking. It is an added weight, but I know I would regret not taking it. For more information on hiking with a DSLR, click here [coming soon].
